Here is a handy summary including one of Ipswich's own, who I remember well from growing up in that part of town.

I always enjoy this defence 'the councillor claimed his words, written aged 20, had been taken out of context'.

Generally speaking, the context in these cases invariably makes them look worse.

My favourite example of that was when the ex-UKIP chap went on ITV to defend his girlfriend's remarks about Meghan Markel "tainting the royal seed", by simply banging on about context. He was asked what the context was and how it could possibly make those comments okay, but obviously couldn't answer.

If the Tories can overlook Boris...
Claiming a child abuse enquiry was money spaffed up a wall
Calling Burqua wearing muslim women letterboxes
Calling africans picaninnies
Saying the Libyan city of Sirte could be a luxury tourist destination once they'd cleared away the dead bodies
Reciting the Road to Mandalay in a Myanmar sacred temple

...then I'm sure that this guy denying the murder of 6 million jews is no biggy for them.

Don't believe a word I say. I'm only kidding. Or am I?

Plus their key takeaway from the research showing 54% of Tory members held anti-Muslim prejudices seems to be that they should be more anti-immigrant and to downplay islamophobia as not really racism.

Reading through that list it seems that Houghton is the only one showing any sign of contrition, do you think he is genuine or is it just a show to get his party membership back?

Probably because I have been dealing with the hews that we lost a very close family friend yesterday and haven’t been on any social media since yesterday morning.

Of course Holocaust deniers have no place in any decent political party. Unlike some on here, I don’t pick and choose to criticise antisemites based on their political allegiance. Racists are scum. Full stop.

That you chose to attempt to score a cheap point On the subject of antisemitism against somebody from Jewish descent with a wife whose father is Jewish reflects poorly on you.

You can join your equally selective anti racist and obsessive up arrower on the div list once again,

When I’m in a better place I may post further thoughts on this subject to the good folks of TWTD. This may include exposing the rank hypocrisy of people who turned a blind eye to the likes of Alan Bull and the numerous other holocaust deniers who were selected as Labour candidates since 2015.

You're being disingenuous here. Nobody has denied that the Tories have an anti-Semitism. It's just that it's not brought up again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again

Sorry to hear that GB.

Hope you’re all bearing up as well as possible.
